We will be there from 10 AM to 6 PM, rain or shine. Some come on by and say hello. Here are a few great reasons to make the trip:

1) All of our books will be 30% off of the cover price.

2) In response to popular demand, we will be giving away printed copies of Diane Goettel’s “How to Get Published by a Small Press” lecture to the first fifty people who purchase one or more of our books.

3) We will be hosting a raffle to win a complete set of Black Lawrence Press’s titles. That includes three chapbooks (one fiction, two poetry), three novels, six short story collections, and thirteen poetry collections. Basically, it’s everything that you see on the BLP website now plus a few more titles that we be out by the time of the book fair. That’s a total of 25 books at a retail value of $367.95. The raffle ticket, however only costs you one dollar and one business card.
